Here are a few little things that really bother me:
- When people drive at or under the speed limit. Now, I know some of you dudes live lame, boring lives completely by the book but hopefully it's not so bad that you drive the speed limit all the time. This is especially annoying on roads with ~25 mph speed limits and you are on your way to work and some old moron has a line six deep behind him because he wants a discount on his insurance for being a safe driver.
- Slow cashiers.
- Shitty bartenders.
- Any time a store calls a sale an "event". I don't know why but this one really pisses me off. There was a commercial a few months ago where the cop pulls over a guy test driving the car and the cop says something to the effect of "When is this event over?". I'm sorry but concerts, sports, festivals, etc. are events, going to buy shit is a sale.
- Cock blockers.
- Explaining shit to people in full detail only to have them ask questions that they would know if they listened, this is especially frustrating when you told them the same shit numerous times.
- People who fulfill thier racial/religious/gender stereotypes. Now, I don't want to be racist/sexist/etc but when people are completely doing the stupid shit that makes their groups stereotypes seem painfully true it really bothers the hell out of me because I don't want to be a prejiduced person but, Jesus Christ, when the majority of people in these groups do the shit that their better people hate it gets kind of hard not to generalize.
- People who claim to be really smart but can't spell for shit or use even remotely proper writing techniques. I don't mind people who can't spell well, but don't try and convince the world that you are some sort of genius when you can't spell for shit.
- People who think that believing in some loony, whack-job conspiracy theory think they have some high level of intelligence. Just because paranoid schizophrenia has convinced you that you know all of these great secrets of society exist, does not mean you know shit. Actually, it probably means you are a bit of a fucking idiot.
There are probably some more. Just kind of wondering what little things make you guys tick. I'll probably write more when they come to me.

I hate it when I see a trooper speeding on the highway. I see it all the fucking time. They are just crusin through at about 85 miles an hour. No lights or sirens on, so they aren't on their way to a bust or being called for back up. That is just their normal crusin speed.
Do those fuckers not have to obey the law also? It makes me want to pull one of them over and give them a citizens arrest type ticket.

Why do they call it "taking" a shit when, if anything, you are leaving a shit?
Not mine, came from Beavis.

I could write a fucking book on this.
Middle seats on airplanes.
Proles.
When I go to Chipotle and the fucking carnitas look like they've been festering in that little bin for 8 hours and they are all dried out and crusty.
Dipshits who honk their fucking horn every 3 seconds when driving.
Bars that don't serve Coors Light or Coors.
I could go on for days. I will spare you all.

Excessive pen clicking, or any unneccessary tapping.
Too many driving things to mention.
People who don't refill the coffee at work - makes me see red.
Snoring - though I snore myself.
Bad music - though most would say I listen to bad music myself.

I go absolutely ballistic when people go against their common sense on little stuff.
The most "trouble" I've ever been in at work was one of these situations.
They were remodeling the service/distribution center I ran, so two other managers and I were crammed into one tiny office along with ungodly amounts of furniture, files, etc. randomly placed everywhere... except for three paths that required you to walk heel to toe --- leading to each of our desks.
One of the front end girls walks to the door with 8 plastic bags of phone books and asks where she should put them. I told her it didn't matter much - due to the chaos of the remodel. Then I took a call.
I later get up to find that she had placed the 8 large bags of new Indianapolis phone books in a line on my "path". And there was no feasible way for me to pick up more than one bag while standing on this path - let alone do a quick reverse pivot due to my size 13 shoes...
I lit up.
I somehow extricated myself from the office and sought out the girl and proceeded to bring her back to the place she left the bags. - and started yelling along the lines of "What made you decide this was the best place to put these bags?... could you not think of another place in this 200,000 sqft facility that might be the tiniest bit better to place these???"
Apparently she thought I was a bit hard - and she called HR crying about how I verbally abused her and was an unfit manager.

Speaking of ladies that sit next to you at work. . .
There was this lady who sat caddycornered from my cube and she would talk really loud and overly nice in a really annoying way and every time she used the word "money" she would say "moneys". It was really fucking annoying, especially considering that word gets used around here all the time.

Maybe Stukat needs to get a sleep study done. I just got approved for a CPAP ( continous positive airway pressure) machine. These guys wine like children, Twine woke me up twice with his snoring. However i didnt wake him up or bitch about it. I handled it like a man and I went back to sleep. I could have thrown shit around made sure that both of us was awake, but i didnt, that just makes the problem worse. Only women and Children complain about somebody elses snoring. |

Car salesmen and their insistence upon using "monthly payments" to try to con me into what a grrrrrrrreat deal they are "giving" me.
I don't give a fuck about the monthly payment until I have to figure out the monthly payment, jackass. What's the fucking price, and how much tax/title/license on top of that? Give me the bottom line, motherfucker. And for crissakes you are not getting my trade in for half the blue book price. I'll give you a reasonable discount since you have to prep it and sell it, but seriously, you're pissing me off.
Oh, and by the way, I have a fucking doctorate. I negotiate six and seven figure deals for a living. Your little game insults me. Now scat.

Normally, I would agree with you. But your kind of snoring is not "normal". It is impossible to sleep in the same room when you are snoring. Seriously, it's like you are dying. |

That wouldn't be an acronym, it'd be an abbreviation. Another thing that pisses me off is when people think they know what acronyms are. |

I could have thrown shit around made sure that both of us was awake, but i didnt, that just makes the problem worse. Only women and Children complain about somebody elses snoring. Why would you be sleeping in the same room as him anyways? Just wondering. My 5 year old comes home from school and throws her snow pants, coat, hat, mittens and book bag on either the floor or the wicker loveseat. I get on her, not literally, and tell her to hang her crap up. She says, I don't have too. I can do anything I want here and I can do anything I want at school. Me----whooooosh, straight through the ceiling, everytime she pulls that shit. That REALLY yanks my chain. Last fall when school started she was this sweet, little, innocent 5 year old and now she is just another 5 year old snot. I called the Social Security Adm' this morning to ask where my disability appeal form was. The lady last monday said it take 5-7 days. She disappears for 5 minutes and says, sir, do you know WHY you were denied? I said of course I do, but I am not asking that, when is the damn thing coming? She said 5-7 days, I have been waiting for just shy of 2 weeks. She got into this big thing, she wanted to make sure I knew why I was denied and I said I don't freaking care!!!! I just want the damn form!!!! I better stop now, my blood pressure is starting to rise. |
